Month: April 2014

I came across an interesting video on youtube which exactly explains how bad gut bacteria has an impact on your health. Also I am still in progress of removing Klebsiella.. using Parex and Goldenseal at the moment will see how it goes.

On a brighter note, I made myself an order for a new Cisco AP 1602E to try it out, will post later about it when I receive it 🙂

I received a interesting update today from the naturopath I am seeing and was advised the following:

I have just spoken the head of the tech dept. of testing. We reviewed your case together. They say that it is not uncommon to have a lot of trouble clearing the Klebsiella. Their experience is that Golden Seal is the most powerful and the next option is thyme oil. They recommend combining the treatment to make it more effective. The best thyme oil source is Metagenics Parex, which you have now. So I suggest you use both the Parex and the Golden Seal together at the same dose as each was on individually. I also think it may work even better if you stop the EnteroCare while doing this.

I am amazed that this bacteria is so difficult to remove so using Golden Seal and Metagenics Parex will be the next option. Wish me luck.

On another note I came across this today;

“Other Enterobacteriaceae spp such as the Klebsiella, Citrobacter, and Enterobacter include species which are oportunistic pathogens. They may occur at low levels as part of the normal intestinal flora. However, there is always a susceptible portion of the human population, and ingestion of these organisms may result in illness. Because they mainly cause sporadic illness that are not as easily identifiable as outbreaks, their true incidence of illness remains unrecognised and under-reported.”

Which makes me think why me? I will kill and destroy you Klebsiella and take my life back to normal!

I should have never gone to Fiji, never would have gotten food poisoning, and never issues with this bacteria, its exactly 1 year now, lesson to be learnt, keep your gut healthy.

Well as you all know I have been dealing with leaky gut issues for a few months now, as i mentioned in my previous post the aim was to kill or reduce the klebsiella overgrowth in my gut which was causing food intolorance, malabsorption, mood changes etc etc.

I tried using Golden Seal however according to my new stool test it didnt even make a dent in the numbers and they are staying the same. My naturepath was a bit surprised they didnt come down. They suggested Metagenics Parex as a trial now to see how that goes. Also I was unable to tolerate Metagenics Gtox and I am unable to tolerate EnergyX anymore either because i would feel so weird in the head and like i would faint. I was then given Metagenics Glutagenics to trial however I was unable to tolerate this either due to rapid heartbeat and weird chest sensations. My immune system seems to be very sensitive at the moment. We wanted to find out why I couldnt tolerate the products and I did a hair mineral analysis test which showed i had higher level of potassium and sodium in my system which was quite stimulating. Those products contained them. I was then swapped to another product Biomedica Enterocare which contains prebiotics, probiotics, slippery elm and glutamine which i could tolerate fine. My hair mineral report showed i also have some adrenal fatigue and to support the adrenals i was given metagenics thyrocalm to trial.

Of course this whole situation would be making me feel anxious, going already for a few months, my diet staying the same and klebsiella numbers not reducing. Is Metagenics Parex the next solution? This bacteria is so complicated and hard to remove as they create biofilms and become resistant to treatments overtime as i read online. So now its April and ive still not managed to progress to kill or reduce this overgrowth. Its giving me anxiety, its hard to socialise, hard to think, taking always supplements, not to mention a crazy appetite with a hunger for meat and meat or my body feels weak. Every meal consists of meat, rice, vegetables. I look at myself a year ago to now and i feel completly different, like somone else is living inside me or controlling me. People say I look fine on the outside but on the inside im suffering.

The naturopath advised they will call the head of stool analysis and discuss my case in further detail, im hoping they have some solution.

Maybe somone online has some tips on removing klebsiella overgrowth and what they did? There has to be a way to remove this beast im just overwhelmed by how complex this is becoming.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions please comment and let me know.
